I tried it and it isn't working for me either.... I have RR so speed shouldn't be the problem...

I'd heard that the old version had suffered some misfortune, the link probably needs to be taken down.
The new version was set-back by my trip to Spain, but it is still being worked on, at least when I'm not procrastinating.

I'm getting lazy about it - people need to badger me more.

Okay then, where’s the new LRC? Hurry up and finish it slacker! :D

I thought that the LRC was Joanna’s, I take it she went off to see the world and left you to deal with it?
Which reminds me, were in the world is Joanna now, do you know if she’s made it to the states yet?

Right - that's one count of badgering... still need more :D

The LRC still needed doing, and I was the only person around to handle it.

And yes, long since. Not for too much longer though.

Well I'm not familiar with the program. Maybe you can give me some ideas about the variables needed and the answers given. Based on it's complexity I could probably whip up a quick replacement program in excel.

How many of you own a TI-83, T-83 Plus, TI-84, or TI-84 Plus grapghing calculator. I have just made a projectile calculator designed for the previously mention calcualtors. I'm rediculously good at programming in visual basic and in graphing calculator code. (not sure what it is.) If you fellas want, I could post the program online. It calculates muzzle velocity, apogee, and approx. distance for a projectile. It won't be perfect yet. Things like friction are ignored. So I guess you can say this would be a beta. I plan to smooth out the code making it more user friendly and include things like drag coefficients. However if you want the program I wont be able to get it up untill this weekend. Let me know what you guys want.
